"From the perspective of the Iranian state" Well you say that but they have got a non-nuclear nuke equivalent in the form of kamikaze drones.

That didn't keep them from getting bombed for a month, and their senior leadership all killed. It just let them punch back a little bit. Not an equal amount, just a little bit.

So, no, not a "nuke equivalent".

There is a designated third party Pakistan and they say Lebanon is part of the ceasefire.

They say it, but can they prove it? Because everyone seems to be saying a different thing. Shouldn't Pakistan be able to say "this is the document, these are the terms, these are the signatures, case closed"?

Pakistan are the mediators, why would they lie about the explicit terms of the agreement? They would immediately loose all trust if they did.

I'm not saying they're lying, I am just wondering why they don't seem to have a definitive proof of what they say- they say one thing and the US "disagrees"- why can't any of the parties just show the fucking document?

Oh no, I live in a flat in a converted commercial building.

They have been going wild in the UK converting office space to residential.

The Spanish tankers aren't going through because there aren't any Spanish tankers that operate in that region.

Spain has permission from Iran to send through tankers if it indeed had some.

So going forward all countries will be providing citizens of other countries free access to the internet whilst censoring their own citizens?

Better than the alternative where they don't, I suppose. Kind of like how for some political things you have to use yandex to search because US search companies suppress the results.

This will be like a global circus of free speech:

Country-1: "Absolutely free speech! Except when it's about Country-4 -> rights revoked."

Country-2: "Criticize Country-4 all you want, but talking smack about Country-5 is treason buddy."

Country-3: "Wait... so I can roast Country-4 but not Country-5... and also not Country-6? My head hurts."

Country-4: "We don't block anything! ...Just not that thing you're talking about."

Country-5: "See Country-3? We absolutely love speech. As long as it praises us. Freedom yay!"

In the end, we might end up having the very same private vpn';s (or tor) routing their traffic over these gov. vpn's based on keyword matches in the request.. or customer's will be able to choose .. kinda like auto-model feature on openrouter lol.

Static typing and duck typing both date back to the 1950s. You may have heard of Lisp.

The last new significant thing invented in programming was OOP in the 1990s.

Everything else is just ancient, OOP was about bringing the benefits of micro-services to single computer environments. Yes, you read that right

The new ECS system for 3d games was used by the first computer drawing program Sketchpad in 1963.

Programming is mostly just recycling ideas around and around.

OOP is from the 1960s (Simula 67 is generally recognized as the first OOP language.) Probably not actually the last new significant thing invented in programming, though.

The issue is that duck typing with a minimal set of types was the great idea of ABC, which is the language Guido cloned to make Python

Well given that the US DHS is posting on social media that it intends to get rid of all 100 million non-white Americans. What exactly did you expect?

what post are you referring to?

If you are a good software developer in India then you move abroad. It's not that India doesn't make great software developers, it's just they don't tend to stick around.

Well either $100,000 per person or an large one time direct donation to Trump to be legally exempted from that charge.

I'm looking forward to the Trump brand visa and pardon combo packs.
